@erie3746 6 лет назад

I was taught when doing cursive that you shouldn't lift your pen between letters so I never thought I was doing that wrong until now. Thanks so much for your help!

@HowtoHandLetter 6 лет назад

Yes! That is true for formal cursive, but hand lettering is kind of different. It's like a combination of a freestyle cursive but adding in the thick downstrokes and the thin upstrokes... because of that factor, it's helpful to break up your strokes so that you can refocus on how hard you are supposed to be pushing! At the beginning, it can be hard to transition from thick to thin strokes without that little pause. If you were just doing cursive with a pencil or regular pen, you wouldn't have to lift up your pen though - I hope that makes sense!

@vivaciouslyla9294 5 лет назад

#4 and #5 are so true of any creative enterprise. I can't tell you how many times I've had to tell people to just keep practicing, don't be discouraged by someone who's been drawing for years and years especially when you are just starting out! They didn't start out at the level they are at, and I promise expensive supplies are not a shortcut. I'm really glad you brought this one up.

@laurianecave4130 6 лет назад

Practice really is the key. I'm a beginner at hand lettering and wanted to try differents pens. I bought one tombow dual brush and was disappointed because I didn't like it. But I kept trying and after months of practice (not every day but from time to time), I think I'm beginning to understand how to write with it. I'm also a lefty so I don't know if I'm having more difficulties than a right handed person 😅 Anyway, thank you for the tips!

@cottonhxney 6 лет назад

Hanafi Ishak you might also want to try harder tip brushes first to try and get the thin strokes. Soft tips are harder to control and get a thin up stroke without being shaky

I haven't tried a lot of hand lettering but in general when I write or draw as a left handed person, with for example gel pens, I angle my paper and shift my supporting point away from my wrist. Maybe try to think back to how you would write on a white board and see if you use any special techniques that you can use elsewhere as well. 😊

@tiramisu9528 4 года назад

@worstusernameintheworld9871 2 года назад

three years late, but I only draw lines fast bECAUSE I'm an artist. It's actually an artist's techniques to draw lines and curves fast to avoid making them shaky, ever see why check marks are almost always smooth than slowly drawing on an underline? The issue is that lettering is different, slowing down can help make it easier to switch from a hard to a soft brush stroke, it's a complete different technique than what's taught for lineart based artwork. As someone who did cartoons and manga art before lettering (and has shaky hands), it's a pain to write slowly.

I want to be versatile in art and so I'm always watching videos on different art mediums and crafts. I would get caught up in the "I have to have the nice expensive tools like them to make my art better" thinking but I realize it doesn't matter if I don't practice. Something about artist making art with less expensive tools is so much more thrilling and cool! I love that you use both Crayola and Tombo markers :)

Yes, I would just look for anything that is labeled as a marker paper at your arts store OR if you have some kind of print/copy center, you could go there and ask for whatever their smoothest paper is.

I find calligraphy/lettering a therapeutic hobby. Writing during work is just for the sake of information it holds. but when it comes to lettering, I have to really slow down and control the tension of stroke for every single letter of the word. It sort of reminding me to take life slowly despite the hectic work life.

This literally helped me! When you said that you should go really slow when hand lettering, I did it and I saw MAJOR improvement on my writing. Thank you so much!
